Against some objections there's a "SHOULD -all" for some
months, IIRC before Wayne took over.  Doesn't change the
fact that some publishers can't do what you wish, a clean
"either PASS or FAIL" policy.

If that pisses you off (IMHO justifiable) treat policies
without a FAIL as too boring to waste your time => NONE


Since we use a CBV (Callback Verifier) as a final checker, for our system, we 
gave the sysop the option to decide:

Accept-SPF-Pass      True            ; if false, continue testing
Accept-SPF-SoftFail  False           ; if false, continue testing
Accept-SPF-Neutral   False           ; if false, continue testing


So it is not a big deal for us. We engineered as much as we can around the 
issue.
